A domain name I searched for yesterday was available, why is it not available now?

Finding a good domain name may take some time, but when you find one you like make sure to register it right away with Netfirms. We transmit your domain registration immediately to the appropriate registry.

Please note: Due to external networks, it may take a few hours for your domain to be live worldwide.

Can I enable privacy for a .org domain name?

The current rules and policies set by ICANN state that .org domain registrant information must be made available to the general public via domain name registration database look-up (WHOIS) services. If you want to keep your personal information private, Netfirms offers free domain privacy on all .com and .net domain names.

What if I registered a misspelled domain name?

If you misspell your domain name or register the wrong one, simply email our Billing team at billing@netfirms.com within 48 hours of registering the domain and we'll have it corrected.

Can I register multiple domain names at the same time?

Yes, our system lets you purchase multiple domain names on one order. It's easy. Simply search for your first domain name and search again to add more domains.
